How many of you are waiting for the spider?
Good question.... I’ve actually decided against the F8 and F8 Spider as I simply find my 488 Spider so epic I just cannot see any reason/need to switch.I bought mine at a few months old at £50k under list and simply think a switch unjustifiable. I’ll hang on to it and see what the mid engine hybrid replacement brings in a couple of years. It’s amazing how much better the turbo Spiders sound compared to the GTB though (well at least in the 488’s)

Just read something about the FUV - Ferrari Utility Vehicle. Why would they jump onto the SUV market band wagon? Let Masarati and Alfa do the job for them and keep the Ferrari brand as a pure performance supercar company. Wonder what the old man would think and bet Enzo would frown upon from above!!

So has anyone firmed up a delivery date yet?
Seems a fair bit quiet on this thread for a new car launched by Ferrari!
I believe one or two LHD customer cars arrived in Europe before Christmas and UK dealers were apparently supposed to have received their demonstrators by now so don't expect much til probably EasterSeems a fair bit quiet on this thread for a new car launched by Ferrari!

My name was down for a pista (but not worthy) the vetting system Ferrari used didn't stop the 18
that are for sale right now!
If you really wanted to spec one, you could have probably ordered a Lusso or a Portofino to go with it and they would have sold you one. Otherwise you are lucky that so many people are selling them, so you can take your pick from the “used” stock available that are for sale right now!

Indeed dropping approx 100k on depreciation for a Lusso v12 in order to get your ideal spec Pista sounds like a good deal to me 
jokes aside, plenty to be picked up from the classifieds - think the youtuber/influenzers generation that jumped on the bandwagon of depreciation free motoring will be happy to oblige
as for the F8 Tributo I would really really want to know if it's genuinely capable of moving the game on from the 488 even for mere mortals like us..
